LIST OF COMMON, STRIKING, AND INTERESTING PLANTS FOUND 

 AT SOUTHPORT, BLACKPOOL, AND ELSEWHERE ON THE COAST 

 OF LANCASHIRE, AND AT NEW BRIGHTON. 



Several species are included which are also found near Manchester, 

 but sparingly and ill-developed. To distinguish them, they are 

 marked f , those belonging purely to the sea-side being marked *.

 the neighbouring coasts are common to both districts. With the 

 addition of this appendix, the "Flora" serves accordingly for either. 

 The names of a few other Southport species, either of great rarity, 

 or attractive only to the experienced botanist, will be found in the 

 complete list of the Southport plants introduced into Dr. Nicholl's 

 useful and meritorious little " Hand-book," and again in the " Flora 

 of Liverpool" (including Waterloo, Formby, Crosby, Bootle, South- 

 port, and New Brighton), in the " Proceedings of the Liverpool 

 Literary and Philosophical Society, vols. 2 and 3, 1851 and 1855, the
